The boys set out on an early morning journey to relay race from West Jordan to Roy in the first River Rail Relay. This is as close as Ben wants to get to Ragnar. (But he's eaten his words before!!!)
The original team was Ben, Cass, Nick and Jay but Cass developed a "condition" and was replaced by our neighbor Aqeel. They had to battle against our friends Steph, Katie, Rachel, and Jamie. Ben actually ran the whole first leg with Katie.
They got lost once and missed Aqeel at the relay point so he had to run 2 in a row. Jay got the shortest leg but only because it was uphill. They all did really well.
We met them at the finish line (which by the way was at a horrible spot). The boys were the 4th team to cross the finish line. But because they started later they actually won the whole thing for the male teams! It was super cool. And they got two medals for winning. Our girls came in a little after the guys and were able to take 1st for the ladies!
Nice job!
